The Outside Track’s marriage of Celtic music, song and dance has been rapturously received around the world. Hailing from Scotland, Ireland, and Cape Breton, its five

Fiona Black – Accordion
Teresa Horgan – Vocals, Flute
Mairi Rankin – Fiddle, Backing Vocals
Ailie Robertson – Harp, Backing Vocals
“Exceptionally good…as the album’ s dramatic arc turns, like Christmas night, more quiet and delicate towards the end, the emotional charge only grows…a deeply moving statement of humanity at Christmas” – Celtic Britfolk
